Hello Ya Ling. Thanks you for informing me about the meeting and for the agenda attached. I am very sorry to tell you that, unfortunately, I won't be able to make 14th June because of previous engagements We have been looking for a new office Manager for our Utrecht subsidiary for almost a month and we have now shortlisted seven candidates. I'll be away 12th-15th June to interview they, as well as to sort out a couple of other matters related to the lease of our offices As I can't be there in person, I'm attach some ideas the investment plan. I hope they are of some use I have also made some suggestion for the agenda. Good luck with the meeting I hope it goes as well as the April one once again, please accept my apologise for not being there with you all.
Best wishes,
Snadra

The five incorrect words are: thanks, engagements, they, attach and apologise.

1- Thanks you for informing me about the meeting

Sandra should have wrote "thank."

2- ...because of previous engagements

Engagement is usually used to refer to a formal agreement to get married. Here, Sandra could have chosen a better option, like "commitment."

3- I'll be away 12th-15th June to interview they.

In this case, instead of "they" the personal pronoun "them."

4-  I'm attach some ideas the investment plan.

Here, "attache" should be in the continuous form, "attaching."

5- Please accept my apologise...

"Apologise" is a verb. This sentence calls for the noun form "apology."
